194: The Problems with Purpose

Purpose has become a buzzword in recent times, often associated with success stories and accomplishments. However, the true meaning of purpose runs deeper than mere achievements. 

In this episode, we will delve into the multi-faceted concept of purpose with a fresh perspective. Our conversation will cover various viewpoints, including the relationship between being versus doing, fostering curiosity, and helping others. 

We will also examine why purpose is not a destination but a continuous journey that requires ongoing action and reflection. Join us as we explore the fascinating journey of purpose, beyond just achieving success.

We'll dive deeper into these concepts:

  • Segment 1: The Stigma of Purpose – the negative connotations surrounding the idea of purpose. 

  • Big purpose versus small purpose – Save the world versus being a good grandparent

  • Segment 2: The Many Facets of Purpose – purpose can also be about curiosity and learning.

  • The concept of being versus doing and how purpose can fit into each

  • How individuals can have multiple purposes throughout their lives

  • Segment 3: What Motivates You? – reasons people pursue their purpose

  • Segment 4: Purpose as a Journey – a journey of self-discovery and exploration.

  • How purpose is not a fixed destination but a continuous process of growth and development

  • Purpose is a verb – not just a goal to achieve but an ongoing action to pursue.
